Sorry, this movie sucks

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Blistering performances.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I live this movie!Colin Feore is one of my favorite actors, and has much training in both theater and film, and his talents are certainly not wasted in this film. Not only is he a welcome sight in this film, but the male who plays the lead character is a good choice for the role. The female characters are strong, and its nice to see scifi/thrillers with prevalent feminist characters. The script is quite good, as it introduces the audience into a sphere of mystery, while feeding enough clues to allow the story to unfold. It is a suspenseful, high stakes debrief, and the audience realizes the events that took place in Afghanistan as the characters do, and its awesome to see their development as more of that knowledge is remembered. The scifi aspects of the movie are well received, and they set this film apart from your traditional shoot em up action pictures. Considering the resources these guys had to work with, it was worth every penny to watch. Would recommend to any scifi/thriller lover!

Wow What a great movie. I was expecting a movie about a war mission, and boy was i wrong. I did not know anything about this movie at all going in and 9 times out of 10, I wind up clicking on the next movie on the list. Not this time, I was blown away. The sci-fi aspect was woven in perfectly, the scenes were perfect. The only weak part was the believability that these people shot all their ammo just straight ahead and not like in a firefight. Now, don't take this the wrong way, I grew up with weapons in the country, so don't let this deter you, just be aware, it is sorta funny, luckily,it is only a few scenes, so no big deal, still done well though. I would call this a B movie that turned into a great movie, so just sit back and enjoy.The big surprise for me, was the dad from family ties was one of the main characters, and I always enjoy his performance and this was among his best. great editing and fairly believable and very emotional with some gripping scenes. I want to tell you about them sooooooo bad, but it might detract from the suspense and who done it. The amnesia bit at the first was a perfect setup and not letting you really know what is going on was perfectly done. It was almost like Hitchcock would have done it. cud dos(sp?) to the crew and producers. nice job

What a great time our family had watching this cool new film. Along with our teen age sons, we were captivated by the twists and turns from the very beginning. Jacob's Ladder and the Truman show meets the Twilight Zone, this film suspended belief completely yet was grounded enough to keep us guessing and intrigued. We had a few questions at the beginning but slowly all was revealed in a poignant and interesting way. Maybe too many gunfire exchanges for mom, but all was redeemed by characters that were well defined and evolved as their motivations were unveiled- along with a very interesting plot twist that kept us on our seat until the end. We had so much fun watching this movie together, can't wait for "Painkillers 2!"

The acting isn't bad as I've seen some say. The story line is so so & parts don't make much sense. The script is definitely a B flick. Cinematography is also good. Its just too bad they didn't put more of an effort into the script. It's not a complete waste of time but not a movie you're going to talk about expect to try to figure out what really happened. It's not one of the worst I've seen. Only about 50% disappointed. An A for acting, A for cinematography but a C- for storyline & script. A lot of things don't add up & there seem to be some conflicting information about what is what. For example, at one time he says his wife does in a car accident. But yet she's still alive. Daughter died in accident as well but he did it for her? Those 2 pieces of info don't lend very much to the storyline itself.
